Jailbreak

Cydia

Remember the Dream Team that was assembled to get the iPhone 4S and iOS 5 jailbroken? It seems that the league of jailbreak hackers have come up with another name for themselves as they continue their efforts towards an untethered iOS 6 jailbreak. They now call themselves, the evad3rs.

The lineup of hackers in the team dubbed evad3rs is slightly different from the Dream Team, however. The lineup includes iOS hackers pod2g, planetbeing, MuscleNerd, and pimskeks. All of these names should ring a bell, as they've been a huge part of the jailbreak community for so long.

Pod2g clarifies in the Tweet who the members of the evad3rs group are to help eliminate confusion on who is working on the iOS 6 untethered jailbreak so that donations go to their right places and not to scammers trying to take advantage of the situation. At the same time, pod2g states that the team is not accepting donations at this point in time.

Thats great, Anthony.. I'm used to Linksys since they're all I've ever owned. I have some pretty tricky VPN and PortForwarding stuff I need to set up on my system so Linksys will keep it familiar for me.

Am I correct in assuming that if my main Mac Pro has been plugged in with an Ethernet cable to my non dual band router - that is has NOT been suffering any slowed speeds from my 50Mbps downstream from Comcast? Only wireless connections have been hampered in my home network - right?

Over on the 'other most popular iPhone forum' - Simon's counterpart ( a moderator over there) very well spoken and trustworthy with his info just posted that an untethered jailbreak for '6.0.1' will be posted this weekend. Is that just flat wrong compared to all the tweeting that's been happening from Planetbeing and ipod2? Is there some 'hot shot' hacker that's nailed a jailbreak for 6.0.1 only without the help of the dev teams? Curious if anyone's heard about this or is it just another 'false alarm'?

Thanks!

Sounds a little sketchy to me.BOGUS.
The claim is: 6.1 GM drops today.
6.1b8 expires on the 28th.
A brand new release of Redsnowwillwon't be out this weekend,
and it will support an untethered JB on 6.0.1 (for some devices? which ones aren't specified)

Also, if you only get 12Mb/s from your ISP, a single-band router can handle that speed just fine. You will only notice improvements from a dual-band router if your ISP offers speeds >20Mb/s, to be honest.

Your wired connections should demonstrate the full throughput as promised by your ISP.

The only thing that would be limited by lack of dual-band Wi-Fi is your wireless speed.

yay.
thank you for being both a smart guy AND a very nice moderator, Simon.
For being not being like "those guys on that other forum"

The (apparent?) source is:

Code:

jailbreaks.eu

by means of

Code:

gdeluxe.com

.
Two sites that are very not legit.

willerz2 does seem to be a nice guy/gal.
And means well. But cut/pasting "news" from scam sites does not provide much of a helpful service.

Wow. I'm very surprised by this. The running "ethos" over there has been for quite some time that ModMyI should "stick to theming and leave all the jailbreak stuff to us over here". But this recent thread over there is quickly making me lose faith in their understanding of the jailbreak process.

On a related but different tangent - their "heavy-handed" moderating style over there is also the reason why the traffic has really started to drop off over there. They've lost a lot of really good people in the last year.
